Pet Sitting in Hermantown

About: Hi there! If you’re looking for someone who truly adores animals, you’ve come to the right place! From childhood through high school, I spent my time walking neighborhood dogs alongside caring for our own family pets. I was known around the neighborhood as the reliable babysitter and animal lover everyone could count on! At 17, I took on the rewarding challenge of training my own Service Dog, which gave me even more hands-on experience and deepened my love and understanding of dogs. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities! From gentle senior pups who need a slower pace to week-old puppies still with their mama. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of getting to know and care for hundreds of dogs, each with their own unique personality and needs. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I’m currently on summer break from college, which means I will have plenty of time and flexibility for walks, playtime, cuddles, and quality pet care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I understand how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your furry family member. I tailor my care to each individual pup and always work closely with pet parents to create the safest and most comfortable environment possible, because nobody knows your dog better than you do! I have safety plans and routines in place for different types of care and am always happy to adapt to your pet’s unique needs, personality, and routine. Feel free to message me with any questions about my services or safety measures! I’d love to chat and help you feel confident and comfortable when booking with me!

“Taylor is amazing! She was incredibly professional and communicative, giving timely updates and regularly sending pictures of our very happy cats. She went above and beyond to accommodate us during a storm-extended vacation and we couldn't have been happier with the care she provided. Part of me doesn't want to give this rave review because I don't want other people to have her booked during our future vacations, but alas, she really deserves it! 10/10, would book Taylor again.”

“Our cats took to Jaymi right away, even our most shy boy let her hold him on the first check in! She took great photos, and spend genuine time with the cats giving them snuggles and making sure they had fresh water, clean litterboxes, and full tummies. Already have her booked for two more weekends!”

Misha S.

“Tia is amazing. She treats my dogs as if they were her own. Being new to Duluth, she has provided me with recommendations for excellent vets. I truly appreciate all that she does for my dogs. If you are in need of a dog sitter, pick Tia!”

Karen W.

“Nicole was great! Communicative, shared lots of pictures from the check in, and even went the extra mile to keep an eye on and water started plants for our garden. We will definitely book again!”

“Peter and Barbara helped me out on very short notice when I unexpectedly had to be admitted to the hospital. Wonderful folks, and they built up trust with my dog who is wary of strangers.”

“Christina was very communicative and flexible with the needs for our pups. We loved that we were able to meet up prior to booking and it was clear our dogs had a great time while we were away. I’m sure our husky enjoyed all the fenced-in play time with new friends. We would highly recommend Christina and hope to utilize her services again in the future!”

About: I love animals. My childhood cat was my bestie, my current cat (a 2-year-old cutie named Ghost) is my soul kitty, and I consider my friends’ pets my furry nieces and nephews. :) I’ve been pet sitting (dogs and cats) for friends and family for at least 15 years (probably longer!), and I truly love caring for their pets. I look forward to meeting your pets and giving them love, food, pets, walks, and playtime when you’re not able to. I work from home and have a pretty flexible job. Because of that, arranging drop-in visits or dog walks in the Duluth area will be easy. I work to create a calm, safe atmosphere for pets, so they can get to know me on their terms and learn to trust me. I like doing drop-in visits because it allows the pet to be in their own space, where they feel most comfortable, while they get to know a new face. :)

“Courtnie did a great job taking care of our 2 cats! She was timely in her drop in visits and provided pictures and a thorough overview in the report cards. We would gladly have her watch our cats again!”

About: I've had my fair share of animals, young and old. I have had a wide variety of animals, including: birds, cats, dogs, rats, mice, and several others. I can do senior care, bathing, training, and will discuss other. I am a stay at home mother, so I am free most of the time. From Monday to Friday I have to drop my youngest off at school and pick her up, but I am free in between. I make sure the animal trusts me first. We love and cherish all pets, even if they aren't ours. Whatever the animal needs, I try my best to accommodate.

“Laura is fantastic. Left me such detailed messages. I loved seeing the photos! Very prompt and responsive. I would book her again.”

Rebecca E.

“Stef is always very helpful when we need someone to watch our pets! She is easy to communicate with and fast to respond. She always sends us videos or pictures during her visits. We've booked with her multiple times! She's even gone above and beyond doing other things while she's here for her visits (grab mail etc) Thank you Stef!”

About: What sets me apart is a lifelong comfort with both cats and dogs—I’ve grown up with them and truly enjoy being around animals of all ages and personalities. I’m a calm, patient person, which helps a lot when working with shy pets, energetic puppies, or senior animals who need a gentler approach. I know how much it helps pets to stick to their usual routine while you're away—same meal times, same walk routes, same cozy spots. Keeping things familiar helps them feel more at ease, and I’m happy to work with you to schedule visits that match their usual routine. Little things like that can make a big difference in helping them feel safe and comfortable until you're home again. I work remotely, which allows me the flexibility to offer mid-day visits for potty breaks if needed. On weekdays, I’m available for longer visits before 8:00 AM and after 4:00 PM. Weekend availability is also possible upon request. In a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, consistent environment that helps pets feel safe and comfortable while their people are away. I try to stick closely to their normal routine so things feel as familiar as possible. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re playful, shy, or somewhere in between.

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was born and have loved every one I’ve met. I have taken care of many pets, including dogs and cats, for the last few years professionally through my friends and family friends. I love taking them for walks, spending time playing with them, and have also fed and bathed pets. I currently work full time so I don’t have any flexibility within my day, but during the mornings (before 7:30a) or in the evenings (after 4:30pm) I’m all yours! I love getting in morning or evening walks and spend some good quality pet time with any pet! I cannot host the animal in my own place but I am a very clean and responsible individual. I am aware that you would be accepting me into your home and that takes a lot of trust. I am a very courteous guest who knows the importance of being allowed into your home and will treat it as kindly as possible.
